Hi everybody,

i made a little Bootanimation for the Folio (Foliomod 1.4). (If anybody is interested in this animation i will upload it to my server and post the download-link here.) Link Posted!

If anybody has ideas for other anims, i can try to realize it if you describe it here.

[YOUTUBE]AB51yFqZb-M[/YOUTUBE]

Download: http://wmhblog.de/bootanimation.zip

Install: Just copy the file as it is into: data/local/

BTW: A BIG THANKS to dexter and the other devs for the Folio! Because of you this tab is usable! Foliomod ftw!
[Folio 100 General] nickwarn:
Of course we want it. Nice work. Finally some custom stuff starts to turn up. It would be nice with the honeycomb bootanimation, im runing it on my Nexus S and its sick.

Looking forward to download link
[Folio 100 General] yankee1964:
Hey.

This is a great work! Thumbs up and thanks.

Wait for the Link
[Folio 100 General] StefanW13:
@nickwarn

I found a "original" Honeycomb bootanimation on the net. But the resolution was quite low (400x240 or something like this) and if you try to set the res to the Folio native its really pixelated. And it looks stupid if you keep the low resolution on the 10" screen.
[Folio 100 General] nickwarn:
I just installed it, and its nice. Maybe we could have another for FolioNotion?

Thanks

To bad I don't have an SD Card with me...

But I'm gonna flash thsi straight after I get home in a couple houers :D
[Folio 100 General] StefanW13:
Thanks!

Sure, will try something new for the FolioNotion. At the moment my holidays are over but i will make a couple of new ones in the next few days.

[Adam General] phazei:
I'm trying to simply copy some files to my device. I hooked it up to the PC via usb, made a new folder and copied the files to it, but when I go to the device in sniffer the folder doesn't show up.

I tried prefixing the folder with a $ so it showed up first, and that folder just seemed to delete itself.

Also seems to be a glitch with "Turn on USB storage". I click it, and it changes to turn off, but then after the screen goes to sleep and I wake it up, it says "Turn on USB storage" again even though it's still connected to the PC.

How can I just copy files over to the SD card I put in there?

This is so trivial and is kind of a ***** that is doesn't just work.
[Adam General] Pikabob:
you could try going to settings->applications->all->sniffer->force stop then try

if that does not work, you could try copying the files to a flash drive or microsd and moving them that way
[Adam General] phazei:
It seems if I copy any files to the device via the usb connected to the pc, it doesn't show.

I tried Sniffer and Astro, shows nothing, reconnect to PC, files are there.

Reboot device, can see files.

No one else has this issue?
[Adam General] Miklan:
Are you using original software or any other ROM?

Try moving the files to your device while you've set your adams screen to "always on" or just poke it so it doesn't sleep. Just to minimize the equation of errors.

I know I can sometimes have problems with reading the memory on my Galaxy S if ignore the safe-removal feature in windows before pulling the USB-cable.

A "meanwhile-solution" would be to use an SD-card reader..
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] psp888:
Now that theres a 2.3 rom for the Galaxy S, basically the same hardware as NS, can we use their browser.apk to enable hardware acceleration? or is it more involved than that, other drivers etc?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] treUse:
If I'm not entirely mistaken, it requires the TouchWiz framework, so no, probably not.
[Defy General] measel:
Hi there,

I'd like to have an option for minimum light emission in situations like a party or other similar dark places.

Inverted colors and very low light would be great. I think the car mode is a similar option but can only be triggered by the docking station. Is that correct?

How would I achieve that?

Cheers
[Defy General] naenee:
Though it does not do exactly what you want, I myself use an application to decrease brightness to a setting lower than default. It's called 'Screen Filter', and it's free. Perhaps it is of use to you.

Good luck ;)
[Defy General] measel:
I read about those apps but it's not what I want. I would rather prefer a setting for white text on black background PLUS decreased brightness.

Thx anyways.

I am not the dev but there is a free GrooveShark client out in the MarketPlace so I thought it should get more exposure.

It's very functional and just needs a tiny bit more polish. The sound quality is great even through 3G.

MOD EDIT: Please post app recommendations in WP7 General, as the Apps and Games section is for app release's only as stated in the sticky I made.
[Windows Phone 7 General] kwill:
THanks man. Been waiting for a GrooveShark client.
[Windows Phone 7 General] thesecondsfade:
Awesome. Seems to work great over 3G though it needs a better way of adding multiple search results to playlists/queue.
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
Nice. And free ! ;)

The interface just needs to be more polished indeed.
[Windows Phone 7 General] PieOfJustice:
Interesting. Too bad Grooveshark isn't going to support WP7. They are open to the idea so with enough support you never know. Keep bugging them via forums and twitter.

Where I can I download MusicShark.xap? I am aware that is not longer in the marketplace available
[Windows Phone 7 General] digger1985:
I think I might have it at home. Pity I restored my phone to NoDo not realising I couldn't unlock it again. :(
[Windows Phone 7 General] Aleki:
bah, I hope GS isnt deliberately flagging these clients if they dont plan to produce their own. Methinks they made a deal with a competitor :/

Here's the xap
[Windows Phone 7 General] shugonta:
I installed the xap file on my windows phone (E900 7.10.7720.68), but it didn't work. Loading failed with a message, "An error was presented, you have internet conectivity?"

So, I decompile the xap and found out, the server to get the grooveshark data from grooveshark's server is no longer working.

Can anyone use this app?
[Windows Phone 7 General] arturobandini:
For people who really love music,

I would recommend the "The Hype" app for WP7.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1145616

It gives access to all the Hype Machine catalog. Hypem.com is a great & free music blog aggregator.

You can make a search, select the songs you like, make a playlist (which will also be available on your PC).

for instance... Here's my playlist (indie, The Smiths, Mountain Goats, Josh Rouse, New Order, Wedding Presents, Balmhorea, etc...): http://hypem.com/#!/eric_sc2
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Urmas1:
Hi,

I`m have I5800 rooted 2.1 and my volume buttons dosn`t work. I`m able to get to download mode with adb (reboot download) as well to recovery but I can`t move in recovery because of not working buttons.

I was wondering does adb commands above do the same thing for me (wipe/reset)?

adb shell

su

format SYSTEM

format DATA

format CACHE

I now I have to be rooted to do it so after I install custom rooted ROM I should be able to do this if I stuck somewhere in boot loop or something? Planning to upgrade to Lestatious 1.2.
[Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikoltu:
Hardly, factory reset does not erase OS from device and if you do format /system, you will lose OS and get bootloop during restart.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
I thought it was a wifi issue, but I realized that I'm capped at the exact same speeds no matter what type of data connection I'm using. I can't go above around 200-250 kb/s no matter what. But this problem ONLY happens with downloading apps from the Market. Everything else loads quickly. My Captivate does not have this issue at all.

What would cause such a unique problem? My Atrix has a capped download speed ONLY from downloading Market apps.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Clienterror:
It's called "throttling" they do it to keep their system stable. If they didn't then market would be even slower because everyone would be eating way more bandwidth. So just a guess here but they prolly think 250kb/s is fine because most apps are like 1-4 megs so your talking 4-16 sec to download an app? Which I find reasonable but to each their own.

*edit*

Coming from a cappy like you I really don't notice a DL speed diff, but I've never really paid attention either.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
I mean, I didn't really do it with a stopwatch, but it's very slow.

And my Captivate, when connected to my FIOS router, downloads at around 2.5-3 MB/s. Angry Birds, a 16 mb app, downloads within 6-7 seconds. And its 3G download speeds aren't throttled on the market, either.

So, why is only the Atrix being throttled?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mister_al:
FWIW, I'm in Canada, apps download FAST from the market - coming from N1, it's faster from download to install.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
Could it just be AT&T then? Like, if the market detects that you're on the Atrix in the US on AT&T, it throttles your speeds?

Or is it some kind of software glitch or something?

dammit
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rajeshr:
What kind of speeds are you seeing for upload and downloads? Use speedtest.net to test your speeds.

I'm getting 2.0Mb/s download and 0.33Mb/s upload speeds with Fido out here in Victoria.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bencaptivate:
I dont have an atrix so i cant really try this out but anyone in the US who is rooted download an app called marketenabler and change the sim code to either t-mo or rodgers and see if that will un-throttle the download speeds
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mister_al:
There would be no reason for Google Market to throttle speed based on provider
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mister_al:
My upload is the same as you - my download is on average about 5Mbps.

I *am* just outside Toronto though. I know if I'm in downtown I can usually get much faster results, I'll be running it on Thursday to confirm
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bencaptivate:
i know google wouldnt do it but at&t might. if they can edit the market to display an "at&t market" when connected to an at&t tower then they could very well hardcode it in the market to throttle speeds when on the at&t network
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
No, wait... this goes further than that... I turned on Airplane mode and connected to the regular, non-AT&T market. And I STILL get these throttled speeds.

I have a full-body case on mine... Can somebody try taking out their SIM card, then using wifi to download a big app from the market like Angry Birds?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
...well, this is weird. I'm in New Jersey.

Somebody told me they've got an Atrix in Virginia and don't have any problems with download speeds from the market.

But there's no way it's LOCATION based... right? I mean, that would be the most ridiculous thing possible, right?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
I just did a stopwatch test with my Atrix and Captivate.

Angry Birds Lite Beta

11.44 MB app

Both are on the same Wifi connection, and are physically less than 4 feet away from the router.

Atrix: 82 seconds (143 kilobytes per second)

Captivate: 7 seconds (1,673 kilobytes per second)

There is absolutely something wrong with the Atrix here.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] smsparks:
Defective unit....

Wow, that's not right. I get excellent download rates with my Atrix on Wifi, equal to and better than your example with the Captivate. I'd be heading back to the store for a replacement if I were you. It has to be that particular phone because I never have problems like that, sorry. :confused:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vangelis13:
Downloaded Slice It (6+ MB) on the Nexus One in 5 seconds flat. Atrix needed almost a minute.

Using in Germany on a non at&t sim so there cannot be anything related to them, I guess?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] loztboy:
I am also having very poor download speeds via Wifi and 3g. I have a very fast fios connection and i'm only downloading at 300kbps which is pathetic. I am returning this thing, hopefully the replacement will work better!!!
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
Alright, after checking with a bunch of people who do and don't have the problem, it seems there were a bunch of defective ones from late December until around January 4.

Anybody who did not have a problem had a manufacture date after January 4.

Looks like that's our answer. Our phones are defective. :\
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ronj1986:
How do you determine your manufacture date?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgymnop:
So your download speeds are in general low or only in the market?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
ONLY downloading apps from the market. Absolutely nothing else is affected.

But downloading apps from the market on 3G, 4G or any Wifi network is always no faster than around 200 kb/s. Usually 150 kb/s.

I went to exchange my phone today. I checked the manufactured date on the phone in the store. 1/11/2011. So I figured it'd be fine, with a newer manufactured date on the phone.

It was defective. Damn it.

So I'm basically playing roulette each time I exchange the phone.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
I tried a few more newly-delivered Atrix units at a few different AT&T stores. They all had the same defect. What the hell is going on here? Is this a common problem for the Atrix or am I just absurdly unlucky?

I sent it in to Motorola for repairs. If it comes back with the defect, I'm giving up on this phone. I hope they can fix it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Ciloteille:
download speeds

I do find this annoying, I get about 2.2-2.5MB/s download and .8MB/s Upload on wifi. And the market is a crispy 250KB/s download (in aprx total download speed of all files.) which is why I stopped using it, almost.

Maybe I'll switch out till they give me one that works good off the market. Guess Im on Atrix #5 now, in 3 weeks.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mgymnop:
I still don't believe that this is a hardware problem....why should it only affect the market downloads...makes no sense...
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Mitty1990:
I get very slow download speeds on the market for some reason with the Atrix but its random. Sometimes it will be slow other times it fine.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] paravorheim:
same and different problems

I've suspected the same, that the downloads are being throttled sometimes. I'm on a university connection, to downloads should be way faster, unless either Google or AT&T is throttling them.

Another problem I've encountered is that the market seems to lose connectivity randomly. I get the "connection could not be made" (or some variation of that), even though I'm clearly connected to Wi-Fi. I have to tap retry, and then it starts again. Is this an issue on other Android devices?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vangelis13:
They have to be throttled, I download at least 3 times faster on a Nexus One. Randon koss of connection is a general thing I believe though, I always had it.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
Motorola received my Atrix 2 days ago. Here's hoping.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
...unbelievable. Motorola couldn't fix the problem, so they sent me a brand new Atrix instead. And it STILL had the same problem.

And because it wasn't the same phone I got from the AT&T store, I had to pay the $35 restocking fee.

Man, this sucks. :\
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
Is there seriously no fix for this yet?

Didn't the 2.3.4 OTA update go live today? I wonder if that fixes the issue...?
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
Dunno what you are all talking about:
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spectre51:
They aren't talking about slow wifi speeds they are talking about it only downloading apps from the market slower than it used to or slower than other android devices.

I've noticed sometimes it does seem to download slower. Not sure why. Doesn't happen all the time for me though.

[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:
These are the same download speeds I get downloading from the Market.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MultiKoopa:
Then you're lucky. Whenever I downloaded from the market, I'd never get speeds above 250 kb/s. But with my Captivate on the same wifi connection, I'd get up to 3 mb/s (the limit of that wireless connection).
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] CaelanT:

I understand you don't have the problem, but I had the problem in several Atrix units in a row. Is there no way to fix it? I had to pay a $35 restocking fee the last time after I gave up, even though the units were defective.

For anyone else coming across this issue, I got a USB JIG and upgraded my phone firmware yesterday and hey presto I can assign the voicemail number now - must have been the old firmware causing the issue.
[Omnia 7 General] 17-apg:
Maybe it was a carrier not allowing it to be done in their firmware. I had an unlocked but T Mobile branded phone and I could not do it either. Like you, I got the USB jig and reflashed the firmware so now my phone is both unlocked and unbranded and I could enter my voicemail number.

Yup you could be right, although another problem I had before was IE would forget my favourites - I'd save a few and then after a while it would forget them all except the default ones.

[Droid 2 General] kerber0ss:
You guys must be tired of people asking the same over and over, and to be honest that is because information is so scattered newcomers often get confused.

But Anyways.

I've got myself a motorila Droid 2 a few days ago, poking around internet i found about rooting and roms and all that stuff, however I've got a question that's yet to be answered!

I'm currently residing in Mexico, my Droid 2 is unlocked and activated on a mexican carrier, however on the guides I've red so far it says that one of the requirements for installing custom ROM's one must wipe all data from the phone and return to factory settings, this means i will have to pay AGAIN to get it unlocked and activated?

As i said before, information is scattered, and is not always accuarate.

Somewhere on the net i also found a post that states customs ROM's come unlocked... whats with that?

And one last question.

What will happen if i only root my phone, no custom rom added? will this be harmful in any way? could i be able to overclock and get rid of the annoying verizon apps or do i forcefully need to install a custom ROM?

Thanks for all answers in advance.
[Droid 2 General] -Gilgamesh-:
Rooting itself would not harm your device, however rooting allows you to do pretty much anything on the device. So, in other words, rooting wont hurt it, however what it allows you to do CAN hurt it.

As far as the roms being unlocked, as far as I have read, all roms are unlocked. However I could be mistaken. But there is an easy way to find out for sure: give it a try. What I would do first root the device and install the Clockwork Recovery Mod and then boot into recovery and make a backup. This way you can restore the phone back exactly as it was when you backed it up (using the restore option), as if you never made any changes. Then I would go ahead and install whatever rom you wanted to try out, and see if everything works as intended. If you dont like it, or it doesnt allow you to access the network, etc then all you need to do is boot back to recovery and restore your backup and when it's done you'll phone will be back to it's old self.

Root: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=782556 (This is the process I used)

Clockwork: http://www.addictivetips.com/mobile/how-to-install-clockwork-recovery-to-your-android-phone/

Not sure how experienced you are - or aren't - so if you have any deeper questions about the process or need more detailed instructions just let me know. :)

EDIT: Oops, I completely skipped some of your questions. With just rooting you can uninstall SOME of the preloaded crap, however there is allot of the preloaded applications and such that you cant uninstall without crippling your phones functionality. My originally plan when I first rooted my device was just to remove the bloatware. However after I saw just how much there was I couldn't remove I decided to jump to a custom ROM. Just to give you an example, I have the Fission ROM installed on my device, and it's packaged filed were about 70ish mb, while the packaged files to restore it back to stock/factory was nearly 300mb. And yes, rooting alone would allow you to overclock your phone.
